- Quote of the Week-
Also, one of the CELDT testers, a former teacher from Paloma, came by my office to tell me what a lovely school we have, how well behaved the children are and how much she has enjoyed being at our site.
- A parent after finding out, from her son's teacher, that he had bitten another student came to school the next morning with a card and present for the bitee. It was so great to see the support that the parent was giving the school and her reaction to this incident. She consequence her son appropriately and took ownership of the action- WAY to go MOM and Mrs. Wolf for letting mom know.
- Thank you to all teachers (Silas, Leandra, Jamie,Hollie, Christy, Grace, all second grade teachers, our new wheel teachers and Mrs. Harris who was the librarian) who stepped in to help with our substitute shortage this week- we appreciate your flexibility and willingness to take on the last minute change!
